In the middle of February, the news broke out, which has since made its way around the world press: Brussels negotiated the sanctions with the United States instead of the member states. According to leaked information, Ursula von der Leyen already discussed embargoes against Russia with the US president in December 2021. In other words, they could already decide on the details of the economic sanctions that seriously affect Europe before the outbreak of the armed conflict. Ursula von der Leyen finally acknowledged the negotiations at a panel discussion in Munich. Ursula von der Leyen said: "My cabinet and the committee already started working out potential sanctions with the White House and the US Treasury Department in December, and then claimed that they had received information about the upcoming war from American intelligence, which is why the negotiations on sanctions also started." .
According to analysts, the sanctions have since brought the economy of the European Union to the ground. While the United States has gained many advantages, for example thanks to gas and oil exports to Europe.
Zoltán Lomnici Jr.: the United States negotiates with Europe in the "posture of a colonialist".
The United States is negotiating with the European Union in the posture of a kind of "postmodern colonialist," said Mr. Constitutional lawyer Zoltán Lomnici, the legal expert of Századvég, appeared on M1's Friday afternoon program in connection with the meeting of US President Joe Biden and Ursula von der Leyen, President of the European Commission, in Washington next Friday.
The specialist stated: in the transatlantic relationship, the EU and its leadership "play a subordinate role", Joe Biden and Ursula von der Leyen are not equal partners.
In this case, it is not far from the reality that "the deputy assigns his subordinate to himself", he said, adding that this lack of independence affects bilateral relations and incites many tensions within the EU.
He said: admittedly, the American government is the mastermind behind several sanctions.
The EU is characterized by complete chaos and apathy in the economic, political and military spheres, said Mr. Zoltán Lomnici. Those who think that "the EU is an American project" will be right, this is what the 2020s are all about, he said.
